About Me

Hello!! :) i am a traveller and an artist. I design games and apps for living and do illustration, animation. i have been drawing since i could remember myself and always found myself animating the characters i created :) which eventually led me to study animation at the academy. i am also a photographer and videographer and i love capturing moments that tells the stories of my traveling. traveling has always been my passion and i am always waiting for my next adventure. i am funny, friendly and open minded guy who always looking to learn new stuff and meet cool new friends. i play a bit the guitar and harmonica, and i do impression :) and as you might figured out i love video games, animation and cinema :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a traveler i have met many friends from all around the world and hosted many travellers in Israel without even using couch surfing. the concept of hosting people is not new for me and my family and i have been doing it for a long time. i always want to meet new people and have new friends. i believe in sharing experiences, so for me getting to really know a place is only from a perspective of a true local.
